Attached are copies of the files.

Try commenting your line out:

#hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue] dns [NOTFOUND=return UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=return

and make it look like this:

hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue TRYAGAIN=continue] dns

Richard, thanks for all your input. Looks like we are trying to send to myairmail.com from UNIX instead of our MS-Exchange system. I'll change the "smart relay" to point to Exchange and run test.

Hey Curtis
Let us know what happends. And dont foget to restart sendmail after your turn on your smart relay.
/sbin/init.d/sendmail stop
/sbin/init.d/sendmail start
And make sure you can resolve to your exchange server. The DS takes ip or hostname too.

Had to call HP Support to finally fix problem... Changed my resolv.conf to search domain. Changed nsswitch.conf to search files then dns. And finally changed sendmail.cf DS macro to the fully qualified domain name of the relay server. I think this is were all problems originated. It had only the short name. Now everything is working great! Thanks for your help.
